Possible to remove radius size and fetch all locations? #150

I noticed that the max radius size is 8587 km. It doesn't search higher than this number. Is it possible to remove the radius restriction completely and fetch all the coordinates?

When you create your GeoFire reference you use code like this:

DatabaseReference ref = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference("path/to/geofire");
GeoFire geoFire = new GeoFire(ref);

If you want to get all locations, just access all of the data at ref. There's no way to do this directly in GeoFire though, you'll need to read the data yourself.
